Do you have any suggestions based on experience with other CAAs?
The article you are quoting is quite old ¿(I think around 2016-early 2017)?
It's not that bad at all. You will always find new questions but usually this will not decide if you fail or you pass.

And if you are very unlucky you may sit on a date where a whole batch of new questions appear for an especific exam (I.E this happened with OPS, FPL around september 2017). Even if this is the case, the question banks (at least BGS) update at a very fast pace, so normally on the next sitting you will be able to pass.

I passed 7 exams on the UK CAA in 1 sitting and I'm no genius.
